Reasons to switch
Statuspage included, not an add-on
At StatusCake, monitoring Business plus statuspage Silver adds up to about EUR 95/month. With LIVCK, the professional statuspage is included in every plan — from EUR 0.
We use our own product
StatusCake's status page runs on Atlassian Statuspage — not on their own product. The LIVCK status page, of course, runs on LIVCK.
Self-hosted available
StatusCake is SaaS only. LIVCK runs via Docker Compose on your own infrastructure — full control over monitoring and data.
GDPR by Design
StatusCake processes data in the UK (a third country) and uses US trackers like Google Analytics, Hotjar and Intercom. LIVCK runs on your server or in German data centers.
Professional incident management
StatusCake offers basic alerts. LIVCK delivers incidents with auto-detection, escalation policies, postmortems and automatic subscriber notifications.
